Halo Reach is my first Xbox 360 title and suprised me with an interesting story, new weapons and (finally!) new enemy types. Buy this and you'll have some nice time in single AND multiplayer (a good buddy for coopgaming recommended!).

Where it all began...

Since Xbox that Halo had been the exclusive game for the Microsoft consoles i enjoyed most, the world created is very unique, excellent gameplay and very entertaining multiplayer.
Halo Reach is one more game that show to everyone how Halo series has become a very successfull IP. In the game you play has Noble 6 and you will understand how the battle began between the humans and the covenant. You make part of the Noble Team who met a scientist that inform you about the plans of the covenant. The action takes place on Reach, a planet which is on the brink of being destroyed and where you and your team do various missions with great storytelling and very appealing cinematic moments. Travelling to various places like the city of New Alexandria or some desert plains, always with great design and big places that makes you think you are on a open world game!
One of the best things about Halo games is the gameplay, it is one of the most intuitive first person shooters, you decide how you accomplish your objectives by taking everyone out in a huge battle or use stealth to your advantage. Almost every vehicles you see in the game are playable, so prepare to drive around vast scenarios with a buggie while your team mate kill all those bastards with the gun in the back! These are probably the moments i most enjoyed while playing the game, no game does this better than Halo that's for sure! In Halo Reach has also been introduced for the first time in the series, some levels where you control a starship in space, and it works very well. Expect diverse weapons as always and some are new. The sound is pretty good too, the voices are good and the music enters in the right moments to keep you in the action and feeling you are on a movie.
About the multiplayer, you can play on co-op with a local friend or up to 4 people online. Play through the campaign or some specific levels. There is the common team deathmatch, capture the flag and much more modes. All multiplayer modes are very addictive, there is no lag and when it will keep you hours in front of the TV to higher your rank, earn more money to buy new content ingame. This is a game full of content, from the single player campaign to the great multiplayer, you have a game with a vast longevity. The DLC is also a way to extend that, and Bungie released great content for the game.
On top of that, the campaign can feel that it was made to be played on cooperative, and the players who love the single experience may be a little disappointed. The graphics can also be better but the fluidity compensate this. I guess there isn't more defects i would point, the game is excellent.
Concluding my review, this is the Halo experience everyone was waiting, a game full of content that will steal your social life, an addictive game like no other, will appeal to FPS gamers but will also be a real good experience to everyone who enjoy an action game. It is a must have for any 360 owner, buy it now or you will never know how Halo began...

A fitting end to the Bungie legacy...

To finish a story we must go back to the beginning...
That is exactly the tone taken with the penultimate game in the Halo series from the creators Bungie. By going back to the battle for Reach, before we play the role of the famous protagonist Master Chief, we must see how the state of affairs got to being so.
So how does it work as a continuum of the Halo universe? It is a wonderful compliment to the series and after (arguably) dipping in terms of its single-player storyline delivery over the last couple of releases (Halo: ODST and Halo 3), the talented Bungie devs have managed to pull it out of the bag creating a wonderfully moody, characteristic and almost personally affecting ending to the story.
With the recent re-release of Halo Combat Evolved: Anniversary from 343 Studios, this is an excellent way to say goodbye to the Bungie perspective and it is delivered with aplomb.
Excellent storyline, visuals, exceptional sound and gameplay that defined pretty much every first-person shooter on the market today, from control schemes to delivery of an intoxicating experience. I whole-heartedly recommend this wonderful, wonderful addition to the Halo legacy.

Excellent

Halo Reach

Halo: Reach is a very good game there is only one real Spartan, but these guys will fill up the hole quite nicely. Good graphics and not too short. Could be longer and air missions with enemy aircraft would have been nice touch but all in all it's a good game which could be recommended for anyone who loves a spot of action.
